Yiddish for Yeshivah bachurim, on wiki To help the average yeshivah bachur understand Yiddish shiurim, litvish Yiddish.
Do you want to understand the Rebbe’s Sichos? The Lubavitcher Rebbe OB”M has given over extensive deep Torah’s on the parsha and other subjects… whereas most of them have been translated into Hebrew, and many of the Rebbe’s Sichos have been translated into English – the original Rebbe’s Sichos are in Yiddish.
Fortunately, some holy and industrious Lubavitch yeshivah bochrim are taking the time to print the Rebbe’s Sichos with Yiddish glossaries for each page, and a full explanation of each Sicha! The work is professional and well done. Just email ycback2basics@gmail.com to get your copies every week.
